    • Opinion Question


      I know everyone has a different answer to this question, but which strand is the strongest, or your favorite? I personally like the Azdgari best...their warships rule, and their fighters are good, but everyone has different ideas. I just want to hear everyone's opinion on this. I'm a curious guy, you see?

      ------------------
      I can't think of anything to write here.

    • I like the Igadzra, they're all secretive...

    • Azgari are my favorite. Sweet ships, good tech, and all-around cool. Zidigar are my second favorite. The Zidara's powerful Beams and rockets along with the fighter's speed and Phased Beam make a powerful AI race. Don't like the Iggies too much, Their Arada version sucks, and their ships are on the slow side. But then, the Igzara is very powerful, and the Plasma Siphon and SAE modules are very nice. I like the Azdgari best, though.

      ------------------

    • The Zidagar are tops in weapons with the phased beam, the igadzra tops in capital ships with the igazra, and the azdgari tops in fighters with azdara. But The igadzra also have very good weapons.

      I hate zidagar because they are hard to conquer.

      igadzra are ok but they never like me, so i dont like them either.

      My personal fav is the adzgari.

    • Azdgari. There is nothing except a space mine that can destroy those. Besides, you gotta love a race that reminds you of gremlins...

    • one quick question...how do they remind you of gremlins?

      anyway, in answer to the question, i don't really like any that much (haven't gotten that far) but the ziggies seem to like me more than the other guys do....

      and yes, the thing in my sig really happened to me...

      One sign you've been playing EV/O too long:
      If you play a racing game and you keep shifting into neutral (then reverse...) because you're trying to use afterburners.

    • Yeah, that's how I got stuck doing the Zidagar missions...I really like the Adzgari better, but I accidentally did the first Zidagar mission (where you save the settlement from renegades) and I didn't think you could do missions for another strand once you'd already done one for one strand. Now, I think you can. Oh well.

    • the iggzies are the best because the Igazra rules!
      with a plasma siphon, it is invincible with certain upgrades

    • The Azdgari are my favorite, I think enough has been said about them already.

      You can't buy any other Azdgari ship other than the Azdara. Either way, the Azdgari warship might seem powerful, (yes it is quicker than the Crescent warship) but it's weapons load out is pretty pathetic. Phase Turrets and Fighters is all they got and in a one on one brawl w/ the Stock Crescent warship, the Crescent warship would take it out.

      Anyways, I've worked for them all, but I like the Zidara the most. Even when working for the Igadzra or Azdgari, I still prefer to fly a Zidara. Excellent balance all-around, speed, weapons, power...etc. Azdaras are too weak for my fighting style and Igadzra's are just too damned slow. The Zidara is the only ship that can compare to...let's see...a Kestrel or Corvette and maybe even the Rebel Destroyer (my Fav EV ship).

      PEACE YO!

    • Im sure all know my favorite strand, just look at half of my other posts, but just so you know, its the AZDGARI. The best motherf*cking race you can get, and the only one that can have the truly invincible ship(ya dont die), the azdara with armor and shield ups.

      AZDGARI ARE GOD!!!!!!!

      Fill up the rest of the way with Shield Enhancers and you are set.

    • Zidagar are my fav. I use the UE Crusier with both Vio. and UE upgrades. I like big ships so the Z. EMC is perfect. I use defence pods as my secondary. "6 Lanuchers"
      I do not use the Zidagar beam though. Just the Phase tur.. I also like the extra 20 in space they give you. It goes great with defence pods and extra rockets for fighting vionians. Also The Z EMC allows you to launcher you fighters without being pounded by long range ordinances. If I'm out of pods then the UE fighters are great against Iggies and Aggies. The armor of the UE Crusier is also 3 times more effective against phase T so the stats between it and the Igazra are almost identical except for the speeds. The tractor beam also works well on the UE Crusier because of its mass. This is just my preference because I like big ships. If you like smaller ships I suggest the Aggies.

      ------------------
      Why are there no maroon ships?

    • I don't like the Azdgari. Basically, they're a bunch of wimpy pirates pretending to be a government. An Azdara is indeed nearly invincible when you outfit it right, but a mere nuisance when AI-controlled. In AI/AI combat, they're more successful than they should be, because the harried ship will waste too much time re-targeting. Also, if you pilot one, its hysterical maneuvering behavior will drive you nuts sooner or later. :eek:

      The Azdgari warship sucks completely. You can take out its fighters within seconds with only three Miranu defense systems and a handful of pods. The remaining warship itself is killed just as easily as a Crescent warship. Also, if you pilot one, you'll lose the fighters extremely quickly, and at a million credits per piece, that's not worth it. Better sell the whole warship while it's still complete. It's friggin expensive.

      On the other hand, the Zidagar and the Igadzra are both quite cool, although the Igadzra are a bit too unfriendly to be likable. The Zidara would be perfect if she had twice the fuel and a sellable fighter bay. I like the Igazra a lot, too. 500 shield points are nice to start with, and she's also reasonably maneuverable for her size (at least she used to, before the revision of EVO). Then again, it's weapons space is kinda limited, and the shields take ages to regenerate.

      As for special tech... the phased beam is ass-kickin powerful in AI hands, but not very useful in an owned Zidara (I'd like to try it on an Igazra with 8+2 fuel units... :p). The plasma siphon doesn't work against fighters -- it just pushes them away rather than damaging them continuously. The Azdgari shield regenerators have no effect whatsoever on an ship larger than a fighter, so they only make sense on an Azdara.
